We are so proud of you, Juanita! 💚

Juanita came through our program and never stopped pushing forward. This semester she finished with all A’s — and with just two classes left, she is on her way to graduating from Wake Tech with a degree in Social Work!

A degree in Social Work. Think about that for a moment.

She didn’t just rebuild her life — she is now preparing to help others rebuild theirs. And that is the full circle story that reminds us every single day why this work matters.

Juanita, we are endlessly proud of you — and we can’t wait to see what’s next!

Meet our staff pick of the week — the Buffalo Chicken Wrap! We’ll let our Kitchen Manager, Sommer, tell you why it is one of her favorites:

“I love the buffalo chicken wrap because not only does it have a little bit of heat to it, but the chicken and mozzarella are hearty and it’s just a really delicious but filling meal.”
— Sommer

Come in and try it for yourself!

Your day just got a whole lot tastier!

Kolaches are here and you do not want to miss out! These Czech pastries — soft, pillowy yeast dough filled with sweet or savory goodness — are something you won’t find just anywhere. But you’ll find them here at Carroll’s Kitchen!

Sweet or savory? We’ve got both. Come grab one… (or three) before they’re gone!

Teresa walked into Carroll’s Kitchen in 2017 ready to change her life & she never looked back!

Teresa was introduced to Carroll’s Kitchen through a friend she met while incarcerated. She joined our Restorative Employment Model committed to restarting her life and discovering who she was made to be.

In her own words:

“The tools that they gave me and the networks that they connected me with enabled me to not go back to prison, to not be put on parole, to not be homeless. Being at Carroll’s Kitchen gave me the opportunity to truly find myself. They empowered me to take charge over my life and to see challenges as opportunities. They believed in me and that helped me believe in myself.”
— Teresa

Since graduating, Teresa has become a homeowner, a graduate of StepUp ministry and Inmates to Entrepreneurs, a college student, and served as our Program Director. Today, her story has come full circle — she now serves as Intake Coordinator at , helping others find their own path forward.

And she continues to show up for us as a proud member of our Board of Directors.

Teresa, we are endlessly proud of you. Thank you for letting us be a part of your story. 💛

Meet Lauren— our General Manager!

“Carrol’s Kitchen saw something in me that I didn’t even see in myself, and they gave me this huge chance. It’s still such a blessing every day to be here.” -Lauren

This is the mission. Giving women the opportunity to grow, lead, and build something real for themselves — right here in Raleigh.

Lauren leads our kitchen with a good heart. We couldn’t be more proud of the woman she is! ❤️

Some partnerships just make sense!

has been one of our most faithful — stepping in to help our women access something that so many of us take for granted: a reliable way to get to work.

And the impact speaks for itself — 100% of our graduates have achieved the goal of reliable transportation, with many restoring their licenses and purchasing vehicles of their own.

Because showing up is everything. And we’re so grateful for every partner that helps make that possible.

Thank you, Wheels 4 Hope. ❤️
